Walz on calling for Trump to release MRI results: "Here we got a guy on Thanksgiving where we spent time with our families, ate, played Yahtzee. This guy is apparently in a room ranting. It's not normal behavior. It's not healthy. Has anyone in history ever had an MRI & had no idea what it was for?"

Your kid got into a great college because of excellent high school grades, and you're aghast that they're now getting low grades on written work. There could be a number of valid reasons, but more often than not, they just don't know how to write.

Totally normal Thanksgiving message from the White House occupant.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

New pricing tiers at national parks based on who you are and where you come from is EXTREMELY Nazi stuff
The Trump administration is raising national parks' prices and adding fees for international tourists from next year in an "America-first" initiative, the Interior Department announced.

Trump official wants us to dress with ‘respect’ on planes. What does that mean, exactly?
The U.S. Department of Transportation is hoping the public will help usher in a “Golden Age of Travel” — and it apparently means dressing up before you head to the airport.

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.
The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.
Hope that clears things up.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.
